Wild Coast’s Bingo Bash draws huge crowd
More than 750 people played the game.
HUNDREDS of bingo enthusiasts flocked to take part in the Wild Coast Sun’s 2014 Bingo Bash last week.
Some 938 tickets were sold and R93 800 in cash was won by players, with a one-line game paying R3 115 and full house paying R12 494.
Bingo Bash, the culmination of the bingo season, is a spirited social event hosted annually for the casino’s loyal bingo customers who have been part of the regular bingo sessions during the year. The Wild Coast Bingo Bash has grown in leaps and bounds since its inception. In 2013, about 680 players took part. This year, a record breaking 750 people played the game.
“This year’s Bingo Bash was a dazzling success in celebration of yet another great year of bingo. The game really is a timeless hit. It’s a sociable and casual game that anyone, over 18, can play. We look forward to welcoming back our crazy bingo enthusiasts again in 2015,” says Sandi Burger, the PR and promotions manager at the Wild Coast Sun.
Weekly bingo will resume on January 8 and will take place every Thursday at 2pm. It is open to anyone over the age of 18. Players can purchase their tickets at R50 for MVG members and R60 for non MVG members and can be bought up to 30 minutes before the games start. Ticket books have six one-line games and six full house games and there is no limit to the number of booklets participants may purchase.
